Ward from Disney

Three typically anarchic Ward Kimball pieces, (1) a revisionist model sheet for animators featuring misrepresentations of Mickey Mouse, (2) Jiminy Cricket as he was never seen in Pinocchio, by Kimball himself who designed and animated the original character in the 1940 film and (3) Kimball by Kimball, a hilarious reference to his life-long love of steam locomotives: a passion he shared with Walt Disney.

Jidéhem's Garage

Jidéhem (Jean De Mesmaeker, 1935 - 2017), a long time collaborator of André Franquin, was one of the most brillant artists when it came to translating real cars into Marcinelle school's comic style. Here are a couple of spectacular original layout sheets from different years, back to the late 1960s, a delicacy for every comic art enthusiast.

This is a character I created about eight years ago for an exhibition and demonstrations at 'Cité internationale de la bande dessinée et de l'image' in Angoulême, France. I recorded the drawing process and made it available online right over here, back then: DRAWING PROCESS
